Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale: Day at the Pier
They’re both world famous rock stars in their own right, and Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale are about to become parents to a second baby (due this summer). How domestic!
The happily married couple was spotted having a romantic day on the pier in Santa Barbara, California yesterday, looking uncharacteristically colorful.
The “Hollaback Girl” singer looked preggers-chic in a bright blue summer maternity dress, while her “Little Things” rocker hubby donned a white button-up shirt and a pair of dark jeans.
And according to an inside source, Gwen is relieved to be near the end of her pregnancy term. Reportedly she had a rough first few months.
“Gwen was very ill in the first part of her pregnancy and really suffering. [But] happily, she’s really blossoming now and is in a great space. [Husband Gavin Rossdale] is just trying to be right there for her and help her through it.”

Angelina Jolie’s Santa Barbara Film Honor
With pregnancy rumors surrounding them, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt paid a visit to the Santa Barbara Film Festival at the Arlington Theatre in Santa Barbara, California on Saturday night (February 2).
Recognized for her work in A Mighty Heart, Jolie, who wore a black blouse and loose-fitting floor-length skirt, was honored at this year’s festival with the Outstanding Performance of the Year award.
While on the red carpet, Jolie told AP television, “To be honest, I just heard that it was a beautiful festival, and one to take seriously.”
After being presented the award by Clint Eastwood, director of Jolie’s upcoming drama “The Changeling,” Angelina said: “Clint Eastwood? Don’t get me started. I could talk forever about him. I could turn the whole evening into a Clint Eastwood evening . . . . I think he’s just a genuinely great guy. He’s nice to everybody on set.”
Kathy Ireland Biography
Kathy Ireland was born March 8th, 1963, in Santa Barbara, California. Her adolescence foreshadowed her future busy career as a wife, mother, businesswoman, humanitarian, actress, and model.
A shy teenager, Kathy kept busy with a slew of after-school jobs, including a newspaper courier (she was named Courier of the Year three years in a row), a waitress, a hostess, and a department store saleswoman. Her good nature was evident early on in her career, with her work at a convalescent home.
At the age of 17, Kathy was discovered by an Elite Modeling scout (the beginning of practically every model’s career). By the time she had finished high school, with original hopes of working in education, marine biology, or journalism, she was jet-setting to Europe for photo shoots.
Her modeling career reached its peak after she snagged the highly coveted 1984 cover of Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Edition, which only marked the beginning of her relationship with the popular “swimsuit” magazine.
Kathy could be seen on the cover of Sports Illustrated three more times, and has since appeared in the magazine a record-setting thirteen times, including the magazine’s 25th Anniversary Special. Her incredible physique graced the covers of many more magazines throughout her career, including Glamour, Cosmopolitan, Mademoiselle, Shape, Seventeen, and Harper’s Bazaar.
If men couldn’t get enough of Kathy after all her magazine appearances, they could get a daily dose of Kathy in her own annual Swimsuit Calendar (which is one of the highest selling calendars in the world).
In the midst of her illustrious modeling career, Kathy was appearing on the silver screen, the boob tube and on stage. Among her list of film credits reads Mr. Destiny, Necessary Roughness, Robert Altman’s The Player (as herself), Loaded Weapon 1, Amore!, and Backfire!
As for television roles, she appeared in Danger Island, Perry Mason: The Case of the Wicked Wives, Melrose Place, Miami Hustle, and Suddenly Susan. She also starred in the play Three Tall Women
And her career doesn’t end with modeling and acting either. Kathy is the designer of her own line of clothing, the “Kathy Ireland Brand”, promoting style and quality at reasonable prices. Her line has expanded into a women’s swimwear collection, exercise apparel, maternity line, home collections, and even watches, shoes, and handbags.
In her goal to promote fitness, health and well-being, Kathy became a certified fitness instructor in 1994, and has since released her best-selling fitness videos, which include: Kathy Ireland’s Total Fitness, Kathy Ireland’s Body Specifics, and Great Buns in 12 Minutes. Partly fulfilling her journalistic interests, Kathy is a contributing editor to Fitness Magazine.
Kathy has practically had the career of several women combined, with the long list of non-profit organizations she is involved with. She is the Entertainment Industry Foundation’s Ambassador for the National Women’s Cancer Research Alliance, the Honorary Chairperson for the March of Dimes WalkAmerica program, and the National Chairperson of Family Services and Parenting for Athletes and Entertainers for Kids.
She is also active in the Special Olympics, Feed the Children, Casa Julia de Burgos in Puerto Rico (for battered women and children), the Santa Barbara Rescue Mission, Project Inform in San Francisco (disseminates HIV/AIDS treatment information nationwide), among many other charities and important causes.
Brangelina Hit Chicago After Birthday Party Bliss
Brangelina Hit Chicago After Birthday Party Bliss
After a fun-filled weekend of birthday bliss, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie arrived in their private jet at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport, accompanied by their brood of children.
Brangelina and Co. celebrated Maddox’s sixth birthday this past Sunday (Aug 5th) at their Santa Barbara, California mansion. Actually they started a day early, with games and festivities.
The entire Jolie-Pitt clan was outfitted in camouflage gear as they undertook a game of capture the flag on their massive property. Complete with facepaint, the family showed that even when you’re gorgeous celebrities, it’s fun to get messy with the kids.
Maybe that’s why the kids looked so sleepy at the Chicago Airport. At one point, Brad was carrying Maddox and Zahara, while Ang toted Shiloh around the terminal. One thing’s for sure… having four worn-out kids is much easier than four hyper ones!
